I can't believe 20 of you can't appreciate a perfectly good burn despite how good or bad of an argument the slime dude was making or whatever.

Is this after he posted that tankies are saying lifting people out of poverty is the same as socialism?
Always fun when comrades come up with strawmen to explain why youre wrong when they don't even appear to understand the issue :rage-cry:
I give critical support to china as an anti-imperaialist, and because they're actually doing stuff about climate change and are pretty much the only nation who is labeled as capitalist who has actually lifted their people out of poverty and improved quality of life for their citizens. I do not support all their endevours, nor do i think they have acheived socialism. I have never seen anyone on the pro-china side say they have reached socialism or that China is perfect with their system of government and should stop trying to improve lol... just that as materialists we're concerned with the common people, and the common people of China are treated fairly well off compared to those of us in amerikkkka when you look at poverty and the social safety net and those are good and desirable things.
If anyone gave that level of critical support to ANY OTHER COUNTRY, including succdem ones like norway or whatever, they wouldn't be labeled a fucking tankie or 'state capitalist', everyone would be like "oh yeah, they like the good stuff from there and don't like the bad stuff, yeah of course" But as soon as someone supports China in any way, they're being a state capitalist that doesn't understand socialism :thinkin-lenin: :agony-4horsemen:
You see, China's over reliance on direct action to alleviate inequality creates a gap in the demand for supply side thoughts and prayers.

You nailed it, and also unlike Norway or the other succdem countries, political power in China is firmly in the hands of the socialist state. China is literally in the NEP phase like the USSR post civil war
